I am inside the house,
inside of the room that we
came to realize that love
does not suddenly become
easy just because the miles
are not wedged between
our bodies anymore. 
I am inside of the room 
where you looked at me 
with hope, but touched me 
like I was a decaying promise. 
I am inside of this room
and there is nothing 
that I would rather do
than to scrub the memories
of when we both came 
to realize that this was not 
as easy as we hoped 
and thought it would be.
